Re: [Bug 329974] Re: SIGSEGV in _nss_dns_gethostbyname2_r() browsing Samba printers, i386 only
I forgot to mention but I had the same problem, I put Samba4 on thinking that would help but it did not, and I then did a complete removal of all the samba4 and any other samba I could and then did a reinstall of samba via synaptic. However this did NOT install the smbclient. I am puzzled by this as it is part of the samba install..It could have been that samba was running when I tried to do the synaptic reinstall. If this makes no sense to anyone then perhaps someone can tell me why I had the use samba printers showing in the printing GUI with 8.01 then it dissapeared when I upgraded to 9.04. ron On Sun, Jun 14, 2009 at 1:52 AM, Stefan Radovanovici ste...@nektulos.dewrote: The smbclient binary was already present, as I mentioned in my previous message (smbclient -L server shows the correct info).

just install smbclient .. you can do this in the command window, not abslotuley sure but I think it is something like: sudo apt-get install smbclient Make sure that samba is not loaded when you do this. you need to do a stop on samba if it is running.

I do not know how to do a test without reloading 9.04 . I do not have a problem now and can print fine with 9.04 and a 32 bit O/S. If you can give me a safe way to check out your idea I will try but I am very concerned that I will be back in the mess again. It took me nearly 35 hours to have a system that does everything it should and did on U 8.1.

Re: [Bug 329974] Re: SIGSEGV in _nss_dns_gethostbyname2_r() browsing Samba printers, i386 only
Yes the printer does have the hand and it was working fine under 8.04.. I also do not have ability to do the workaround as my GUI does not show windows printer via Sambaunder networked printers in the systemadminprinting GUI menu.. ( why not??) The person who did the workaround used the 64 bit 9.04 version and I am on the 32 bit. Apparently the 64 bit does NOT have this bug as stated in the forums. Thanks for your kind thoughts and ideas but I am almost at the point of buying a wireless accessible printer.. as I spent too much time already on this. I have one idea that I will try and to make the windows connected printer not shared and then reboot and make it shared.. this could well be a windows problem.. it would not suprise me!!

Read: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1140448 The workaround does work. Also, remember that SAMBA does not enable you to see Windows shares, that is what smbclient does.
